Onion Dip Tomorrow

There’s no onion dip you can have today that’s as good as Onion Dip Tomorrow.

This is riff on Alton Brown's onion dip. I'm not a big mayo person, so I go for sour cream only. This also incorporates a tip I picked up that any dish with onions can be made better/fancier by using some shallots.

  • 1 medium to large white onion, chopped fine
  • 1 shallot, chopped fine (optional)
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 16 oz tub full-fat sour cream

Preheat nonstick skillet with oil and then add onions and shallot. Stir occasionally, cooking until onions are deep golden brown. Allow to cool for 10-15m.

Put sour cream in a bowl, stir in cooled onions, and place in refrigerator overnight.

Season to taste with salt. Optionally add garlic powder and/or white pepper to taste.
